Vazquez giving TFC strikers midfield of dreams

Giovinco and Altidore lobbied for a creative midfielder. It's early, but Victor Vazquez has been getting it done.

Toronto FC midfielder Victor Vazquez misses the ball, but connects with Real Salt Lake midfielder Luke Mulholland in March 4 action.

Newcomer Victor Vazquez has already opened his scoring account with Toronto FC before Friday night’s home opener against Sporting Kansas City, but don’t expect the Spanish midfielder to spend much time worrying about putting the ball in the back of the net this season.

“I prefer to give assists,” Vazquez said this past week.

That’s music to the ears of TFC’s strikers, who made it clear in the off-season than an incisive, attacking, creative midfielder was on top of their wish list.
